I LOVE Halloween! It is my favorite holiday to craft decorations for! This year I picked up the cutest white ceramic, paintable, light-up pumpkins at Michaels. I admit - painting, especially fine detail, is not my strong suit. But I decided these pumpkins were too cute to not at least try out. So the first thing I did was paint them with Carved Pumpkin and Peeled Paint Distress Paints. And they looked cute, but . . . it was too generic for me. So I decided I wanted to try and "Steampunk" them! I covered over the paint with Tim Holtz Idea-ology Halloween Tissue paper with poison labels on it and then added a bunch of Idea-ology gears in different shapes and sizes with a ton of the new Distress Halloween Crypt Texture Paste. The leaves are from a Tim Holtz die called "Garden Greens". And then finally I sprayed some craft grass with Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Spray and added a bit all over. Happy Halloween!
